Matthieu Bonneric is associate professor at Arts et Métiers Institute of Technology (France). He obtained his PhD in 2018 at CentraleSupelec for a dissertation on the fatigue damage mechanisms in steel cables. During 2018 and 2019 he had a post-doctoral position at Arts et Métiers in Talence (France), working on the influence of defects on the fatigue behavior of aluminium alloys produced by additive manufacturing. His research interests concern the influence of defects and microstructure on the fatigue behavior of metals in the high cycle fatigue and very high cycle fatigue domains.
